“There go the ships: there is that leviathan, whom thou hast made to play therein. made: Heb. formed”
Psalms 104:26 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 104:26
Ships travel the sea, and leviathan (livyatan) plays there. God made both human commerce and mysterious sea creatures. Leviathan, elsewhere a fearsome symbol of chaos (Job 41, Ps 74:14), here frolics playfully. God is so sovereign that even chaos monsters are His playthings. This demonstrates ultimate divine authority—what terrifies humans amuses God. Christ's calming the storm and walking on water (Matt 14:25-33) similarly showed authority over what humans fear. The Reformed doctrine of God's sovereignty assures believers no force threatens God's purposes.
